Black band on the page when I copy!

Same problem resolved: HP Photosmart 5510, black vertical stripes (1.5cm) and purple stripes (several of 1mm), no charger, so paper needs to be placed on glass.
Solution used: I cleaned the white panel of the lid, the glass of the scanner itself, unplugged the printer from the power supply (220V AC) and from the PC (USB) for several minutes. Repeated the power disconnection 2 times to restart the scanner initiation and everything is back to normal. Don't lose faith; at first, it's scary and frustrating, but you'll always find someone on support forums who has an idea or sparks a thought that leads to the solution.

Hello

Same issue, I found the solution on the HP website and it's working again

You just need to unplug the printer from the power supply for more than 30 seconds

Hello, I also have a vertical black band of 7cm when I scan or copy with my HP C8180 printer; I have tried many things and nothing works.

hi
I had the same problem with a c4200 printer: a big black stripe in the middle while scanning.

solution:
I took off the cover, used a cotton swab on the lens, blew hard on it, did the same for the ribbons, I ran my finger over them and removed the dust and blew hard on them too, I put it all back together, and it works!!!!!!
no more black marks....

get your screwdrivers ready...

Hello
I have the same problem; as soon as I try to photocopy documents with the Epson Stylus TX100 printer, a black band appears across the entire page.
Have you found a solution?
Thank you.

black band during SCANNING!!! has nothing to do with printing, that's my problem!!!
do you have a solution, it's a lousy HP PSC 1205!

Thank you :-)

Hello,
I encountered the same problem as all of you; I was already thinking about buying a new printer, but I changed and shook the black and color ink cartridges before putting them back in. And the problem was solved!
I hope it will be the same for you.
Have a great day!

Hello, I have the same issue with black bands while scanning. Did you find a solution? I'm looking on my side, maybe it's a problem with the sensor.

I had the same problem and I did a complete cleaning of the printer and everything is fine now.

Hello,

Apparently, it could be either the internal power supply of the scanner or the scanner's lamp.
In any case, today the smallest spare part for a printer costs as much or even more than a new printer. Unfortunately, it is not worth repairing a printer if a part needs to be replaced.
Best regards.

unplug for 30 seconds, it worked for me (old HP c4228)!

Hello,

Similar problem on an HP1010.
Black band on the side.

Solution: Change the cartridge.

Have a nice day.

In general, there are two glass panes, one for placing the originals (in this case, the sensor moves) and the other, which is narrow, for passing the original in front of the sensor when using the sheet feed. (In this case, the sheet moves in front of the sensor).
The dirt on this small glass pane creates beautiful streaks when using the feeder to make copies or scans. Indeed, in this case, the sheet moves in front of the scan, so a point on the glass gives a streak on the copy or the scan.
